Inside Jokes Is Now Available Exclusively On Amazon Prime Video

Inside Jokes is now available exclusively on Amazon Prime Video for customers in the U.S., U.K., Canada, Australia and New Zealand. The six-episode Prime Original series follows up-and-coming comedians in New York and Los Angeles as they pursue their dream of being selected for the prestigious Montreal Just for Laughs Festival New Faces showcase.

The cameras follow the select group of talented comics—Rosebud Baker, Robert Dean, Kellen Erskine, Simon Gibson, MK Paulsen, Alzo Slade, and Daphnique Springs—as they go through the process of auditioning for the New Faces showcase. Prime members have unprecedented access into the exhaustive annual nationwide search and what it takes to be chosen for this exclusive showcase. The series follows the comedians to comedy clubs, to their jobs, and to their homes, as they struggle to hone their acts. And for those select few chosen to be New Faces, as they prepare for a performance that could launch their careers.

New Faces is a launch pad for major comedic talent: former New Faces comedians featured in the docuseries include Hannibal Buress, Gary Gulman, Pete Holmes, Gabriel Iglesias, Colin Jost and Chelsea Peretti. Comedian Cameron Esposito also appears.

Founded in 1983, the Just For Laughs’ growth is concentrated on three major focal points: Festivals (in Montreal, Toronto, Vancouver and Sydney); television production and stand-up specials (most notably Gags, seen in 135 countries and on 100 airlines); and live shows (Canadian tour dates for Jerry Seinfeld, Carol Burnett, Bill Burr, Jimmy Carr, Kathy Griffin, Trevor Noah and Steve Martin & Martin Short). The Montreal Just For Laughs Festival, which will celebrate its 37th edition in July 2019, is the world’s largest and most prestigious comedy event, welcoming more than 2 million people each summer.

Prime members can stream the series exclusively via the Amazon Prime Video app for TVs, connected devices including Fire TV, mobile devices and online at amazon.com/insidejokes. Members can also download the series to mobile devices for offline viewing at no additional cost to their membership. The series will be a global release and available on PrimeVideo.com for Prime Video members in more than 200 countries and territories in 2019.
